Our Purpose

Team Rebel is a group of extreme anglers that were assembled by founder Zach "The Hammer" Miller. Team Rebel is quickly rising up the fishing ranks to national prominence, while keeping their own edge and style as they are kicking down the doors in the extreme angling entertainment industry. Team Rebel can only be described as  "A rock band that got stuck on a drift boat for too long" and many people in the fishing world and entertainment industry are intrigued, yet mystified by their edge, attitude,accomplishments and style. Team Rebel is on the cutting edge of expeditionary style angling and is world renowned for pushing the envelope to accomplish extraordinary angling feats, all while carrying a strong message of conservation about the wildlife we encounter in our expeditions.This is done all while we fight for anglers rights all across the state. We are experts in the department of shark fishing, land-based fishing, as well as shark fishing historians. Our quest will never end, as our pursuit to accomplish what many deem impossible is what drives us to put our life and own safety on the line to flatten the box of ordinary, and promote a misunderstood and mostly forgotten style of extreme angling in a way that old school sport is met with a new age twist. Join them, as cast off on our quest to rock the angling and scientific world, all while achieving our goals in ways that many may label them "Insane".

Human Remains found in Bahamian Tiger Shark

WARNING :

This Post Contains Some Graphic Images

 

 

Like a scene from the movie "Jaws", a large tiger shark was brought back to port on the Bahamian island of Exuma after a fishing trip, but this 12ft tiger shark wasn't brought back to dock to be hung for a couple of trophy photos, beheaded, then thrown into the water to rot,this was a much different reason.

 

A few anglers were out fishing roughly 35miles when they captured a large tiger shark and brought it boat side with the intent of releasing it, that is until it regurgitated a large piece of human flesh next to the boat. That is when the decision was made to terminate the shark and bring it back to port and see what the deal was. Well, the shark bit off a little more than it could chew apparently, as seen in the photo below.

 

 

OUCH!!! Not a good way to end a day of fishing! I must say though all the parts of the corpse were in the sharks stomach, minus the head.......... Suspicious, I know, but as of right now the Bahamian authorities are performing DNA testing right now in an effort to identify the remains found in the stomach.

 But the part about this that is REALLY grinding my gears right now is the fact that there is actually extremist activists groups here and there PROTESTING the killing of this shark, seriously people, it isnt ever good to see a dead shark, we here at Team Rebel echo those sentiments, but at the same time it REGURGITATED A HUMAN, the shark needed to be brought back to port to obtain the rest of the corpse so MAYBE a family who has a loved one missing can get some sort of closure. The shark ate a person and the fisherman are no better than the shark for killing it, WRONG, these fisherman did the right thing when presented with such a gruesome situation, you can't just let the fish swim away and tell everybody it coughed up a piece of a person "but you let it go", its a crime scene now people, get a life.

Anyways, it has been quiet here at Team Rebel's headquarters as of late, but we are looking into laying into some beasts very shortly as the mullet run is upon us!

 So keep an eye out because we will be back VERY shortly and stronger than ever! Until next time............Team Rebel out!!

 

P.S. GO BUCKEYES!!
